Community Faith Center has been ministering in Redlands for more than 60 years. With fervent prayer and a passion to share Christ, the church, which was originally known as Redlands Apostolic Church, was founded in 1950 by the Rev. Cristobal Saucedo when he and his wife, Maria, were sent from the San Bernardino Apostolic Church to work in the Spanish-speaking community in Redlands.

Since the church began with just a few members, they met first in homes. Soon they were able to purchase a school building at 711 Lawton St. Toward the end of 1958, freeway construction went through the property and the congregation eventually bought an orange grove on Texas Street. They removed the orange trees and moved the old school to the property. After renovating the building and adding a multipurpose hall and Sunday School rooms, they held dedication services in March 1961. The sanctuary was remodeled in 2003, which increased the seating capacity and created an inviting space for worship.

In addition to the worship services, Journey of Faith classes are offered to help people learn how to become disciples of Jesus Christ. Following the Sunday morning worship service volunteers run a

Church Cafe which remains open as long as people come in for lunch and to fellowship.
